Tho Lottery III France.

Hitherto the ]'rcncl,nnn has had IL pro-
found belief in the lottery, but he is now
bc.,.. inning to l;5o faith il, it, from the fact
that t,,c chances uf drawing {. prize arc
disa,grce2bly small ana the chances Of
blanks unreasonably srrcat. This has
compelled the organizer; If the lotteries,
with the concurrence CT the government,
to resort to al surts Of devices to force
their tickets down tho throat, Of the pub
lie. Sixty per cent. il, knocked of in
order to induce s,.ooAcepcrs to sell their
tickets, and the shop!secpcrs, in their
turn, offer the tickets at Il reduced price
in order to make TIC public buy them.
Instead Of getting an ordinary ticket for
admission to an exposition or II fetc, yor,
ore frequently prcscntcd with II lottery
ticket, which entities you to admission
and also to the c.ance-very slight indeed
OF prize when the drawing takes
place. When such dod s,cs arc resorted to
in order to f,ct rid Of tickets, it clearly
shows that the faith in lotteries here
though t::cy are looked after by the state
-i3 declining. II seems likely, iadced,
that they will soon die IL natural dcath.-
